Abstract excerpt
Failed surface expression of the complement decay-accelerating factor (DAF) due to mutation of the PIG-A gene is a hallmark of affected paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria (PNH) blood elements. Previous findings that acute myelogenous leukaemia (AML) blasts evolving in a PNH patient differed from idiopathic AML blasts in that they exhibited DAF negativity suggested that the leukaemic blasts derived from an...
